About This Track

'Neptune' by Foals is an alternative track from the album 'Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part II', released in 2019. The lyrics move from “the white wards of England” towards a retreating, dreamlike sense of release, with rivers and roads, olive groves and magnolia imagery, before settling into an exhausted plea to sleep. It is a journey song with a cool, inward hush, where the landscape feels less like geography and more like a protective myth.

"Neptune" is a track by Foals, from the album Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part II, released 8th March 2019. The track is 10:18 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about Foals.

Lyrics

Neptune

Hey
Now it's time to go
From the white wards of England
The crows line the rivers and roads
I wanna walk where I know
Through the olive groves
The sky that knows my name
It gave me away
The magnolia moon
Like an eggshell, a white bell
To lighten my cold room
So let me sleep where I live
With a murder of crows
That live in the boughs of my brain
See me when I float like a dove
The skies above are lined with trees
I'm on my knees, I'm singing, please
Come and take me away
Time brings low all good things
When you open your eyes
When you open your eyes
Now in the vastness of pines
Where my ghost lies in loose-limbed array
I pass the time
Go upload my heart
To the fatal shore, forevermore it spins here
'Hind closed doors
Now it's time to go
Through the fields of chrome
The rusted homes abandoned
Remains of the day
So come row me away
On black rivers and rainbows
To Neptune
Where I can stay
See me when I float like a dove
The skies above are lined with trees
I'm on my knees, begging please
Come and take me away
Come take me away
Come take me away
Time brings low the best things
When you open your eyes
When you open your eyes
Time brings low all good things
When we open our eyes
When we open our eyes
Oh, I've waited so long
On the snow shores of England
To sing my last song
So come row me away
On black rivers and rainbows
To Neptune
Where I can stay
See me when I float like a dove
The skies above are lined with trees
I'm on my knees, begging please
Come and take me away
Come take me away
Come take me away

    Foals are a knockout in the underground confines of EartH Hackney

    You know the sort of shows that should need planning permission for the spectacle they’re about to put on? That’s what Foals thrive on. In that raw and fizzing setting, where anything goes, and all that’s there is a band in their prime laying it all out - the ultimate distillation of the primal spir
